Genome sequences of 36,000- to 37,000-year-old modern humans at Buran-Kaya III in Cri

Was anyone able to find any leads on BK3Cs haplogroup? The Chinese yfull clone called it as I, which is very possible given their autosomal dna, but I don't know their methodology at all so I'm skeptical.

Mt-DNA:
BK3C is U* (manually confirmed)
BK3A is pre-N1b (manually confirmed)

Y-DNA:
BK3C is descendant to F, but ancestral to F-Y27277, G, H, I, J, L, M, N, O, P, S, T, so I would bet my money on K and probably K2a like UstIshim, Oase1 and BK1653, however since there are no reads to prove it, he could also be F*,GHIJK*,GHIJ*,IJK*,IJ*,K*,K2b,LT*

BK3A is CT but not F, so likely C and probably C1 like many European ancients, but anything below C is speculation since there are not enough reads.

The mtdna looks very west eurasian, interesting. I would bet the Ydna will be either K2a as you said but could also be I.

Buran Kaya . I lost the previous plink files so here I did my own alignment from fastq files.

All 3 of them are males. According to the publication Y hg is F.
